KALI openvas // scanner not starting since reboot
Posted: Fri Aug 10, 2018 5:20 am
Greetings,
i have an Openvas 9 kali that stopped working since a reboot. the scanner was performing scan when it rebooted.
I checked logs and found nothing. Did an strace and foudn it seems to be waiting for the redis server
it is redoing the below mulitple times
the redis server is up & running & the /var/run/redis-openvas/redis-server.sock file is present
ps -aux | grep redis
redis 808 0.2 1.4 147872 115516 ? Ssl 04:41 0:04 /usr/bin/redis-server 127.0.0.1:0
Anyone can help me to understand what is prevening the openvassd to start ?
